AUXILIARY POWER POINT (12V DC)

Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert
any other object in the power outlet as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Do not hang any type of accessory or
accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the power
outlet can cause damage not covered by your warranty.

Auxiliary power points can be found in the following locations:
• On the instrument panel
• Inside the center console storage bin
Do not use the power point for operating the cigarette lighter element (if
equipped).

Note: Do not plug optional electrical accessories into the cigarette
lighter socket (if equipped). Improper use of the lighter can cause
damage not covered by your warranty, and can result in fire or serious
injury.

To prevent the fuse from being blown, do not use the power point(s)
over the vehicle capacity of 12VDC/180W/15A. If the power point or cigar
lighter socket is not working, a fuse may have blown. Refer to Fuses and
relays
in the Roadside Emergencies chapter for information on
checking and replacing fuses.

To have full capacity usage of your power point, the engine is required to
be running to avoid unintentional discharge of the battery. To prevent
the battery from being discharged:
• do not use the power point longer than necessary when the engine is

not running,

• do not leave battery chargers, video game adapters, computers and

other devices plugged in overnight or when the vehicle is parked for
extended periods.

Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
